4-pin mini din input to a P4 connector
Does anyone know where I can purchase this type of connector? It should go from a 4-pin mini din input to a P4 connector. I believe they are called 4 pin mini-DIN to mini-FIT JR adapters. The problem is that these are mostly sold with the power bricks, and I already have that. I am going to be using...

I currently have the Winmate and an Alienware 220W adapter. I plan to move my system into an Antec ISK300-65 case. The Antec case comes with the following adapter. Can I re-use this adapter or should I just mod the case to use the extension included with the Winmate. http://lh6.ggpht.com/_Zh4ijSs7id...

Temp of E7200 proc
Hi all, I am putting together a new HTPC, and I was wondering what the nominal operating temp of the E7200 should be in my situation. I have the system in a NSK2480 case, and installed a mini-ninja (using the thermalright bolt-thru kit). I have only one side fan, which is a 800 rpm Scythe S-Flex. Ri...

In my previous HTPC, I used a Seagate drive and it was too loud. I want to avoid that this time. The Patriot PE32GS25SSDR (MLC) seems to have good reviews. From the reviews it does not appear to suffer from the freezing plaguing the OCZ drives. Do you think I would be able to install Vista on it? Ke...

SSD is too expensive at the moment. However, you are right, SSD is the best option. I guess my real question is, what is the difference in terms of seek noise between the 3.5" WD6400AAKS and 2.5" WD3200BEKT? They seem to be similar if AAM is turned on in the WD6400AAKS. BTW, do laptop drives use any...

I'd suggest something like the WD GP drives if you're completely paranoid about noise, or the new WD3200AAKS or WD6400AAKS drives. I was thinking about getting the 500GB WD GP drive, but I am concerned about speed. Would it be fast enough? I was also considering the WD6400AAKS, but I don't need som...

3.5" vs. 2.5" for HTPC
I am in the process of building a HTPC, and I am stuck on the HDD to buy. I want it to be as silent as possible (of course), so I was thinking about buying a notebook HDD and softmounting it in my NSK2480. My criteria is 7200rpm with 16mb of cache, and a price tag of less than $100. Am I correct in ...

I am making a new HTPC using the Antec NSK2480, and I am looking for a quiet 7200rpm notebook drive, with at least 16mb of cache.
I was thinking about this WD Scorpio Black 320GB drive.
Any suggestions on which model I should buy?

I have an E8400 in an Abit IP-35 Pro, and I just installed a Scythe Ninja with the Thermalright Bolt-Thru. I don't have Windows installed on the PC yet (was trying out Ubuntu), but I am concerned about this issue. How am I supposed to know if I installed the heatsink correctly if the temp reported i...

Wouldn't it be easier just to RMA it? Corsair gives it 5 year warranty for a reason. Well, the store is closer and a RMA will take a couple of weeks. Either way, I got it exchanged for another HX-520, and that also makes the same sound. I am guessing the fan in them is not good. I will most likely ...

Just wanted to update my previous post. The HX620 that I purchased brand new is now making chugging noises similar to the ones that I had purchased used. :( I bought a HX-520 a couple of weeks ago, and today I tested it by shorting the pins. I am hearing the chugging noises, like its scrapping agai...

I already ordered the parts so I cannot change anything now, but the reason I went with the board listed above is because it offers 8 sata ports (7 internal + 1 external). unRAID has a limit of 16 drives, therefore I will get 8 through the motherboard, and then another 8 from PCI controllers I plan ...
